Wikipedia:WikiProject Dungeons & Dragons/Dragonlance
Welcome to the Dragonlance WikiProject. We are a group dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of Dragonlance.
(For more information on WikiProjects, please see Wikipedia:WikiProject and the Guide to WikiProjects).
Goals
This WikiProject has been created in order to create, improve and maintain articles related to the Dragonlance series of novels.
Scope
Since this WikiProject is relatively young, it will cover a number of topic that go beyond the Dragonlance novels:
- Novels
- Novel authors
- Gaming modules
- Films
As the WikiProject advances, it may split into several branches to cover the gaming modules and films. However, until this action is necessary, articles related to gaming and films will be covered by this WikiProject.
Parent WikiProject
Wikipedia:WikiProject Novels and Wikipedia:WikiProject Fictional series are the direct parent of this WikiProject. Guidelines set in those WikiProjects will be accepted by this WikiProject when related to novels.
Guidelines
Categorization
All pages related to Dragonlance should be categorized in the category most relating to it, as a Dragonlance book cover should not be classified as [[Category: Dragonlance]], but as [[Category: Dragonlance covers]]. For an explanation of the categories, please see heading 9, Categories, located below.
Characters
Not only should Dragonlance characters be classified, but they should have an {{DL character}} infobox. For a more detailed explanation on the [[Category: Dragonlance]] infobox, please see {{DL character}}.
Open tasks
For a temporary list of tasks, see User:ReyBrujo/Base/Dragonlance.

Templates
Infoboxes
- {{DL character}}
- Currently the WikiProject Dragonlance uses {{DL character}} in articles about Dragonlance characters to describe the most important characteristics of the character. For usage, please see the template instructions.
Navigation
- {{Dwarfs of Krynn}}
- {{Elves of Krynn}}
- {{Kanan Family}}
- {{Majere family}}
- {{Pantheon of Dragonlance}}
- {{Kingpriests of Istar}}
- {{Ergoth emperor}}
- {{Speaker of the Stars}}
- Navigation templates are used to quickly find a series of related articles, starting from a random one. These templates include navigation boxes ({{Dwarfs of Krynn}} and {{Elves of Krynn}}), family trees ({{Kanan Family}}, {{Majere family}} and {{Pantheon of Dragonlance}}) or timelines ({{Kingpriests of Istar}}, {{Speaker of the Stars}} and {{Ergoth emperor}}). New navigation templates should be added at the top of this section.
